Car parks

All our car parks are on site and are managed locally by the Airport.

However, the price can vary dependent on availability, car parking facilities and distance to the terminals. View information on all our car parks at a glance to decide which one is most suitable to your needs.

All our Airport car parks have a tarmac surface, with the exception of our Jet Parks car parks that have a gravel surface. However, please note that all our car parks have the Park Mark® Accreditation.

A height restriction of 2.0 metres (6 ft. 6 inches) applies to all Meet & Greet car parks and all multi-storey car parks across all the Airport sites.

Trailers are not permitted in any of our parking facilities.

The Airport car parks have been awarded Park Mark® Accreditation.

This means you're visiting a safer parking area that has been vetted by the British Parking Association (BPA) and has measures in place in order to create a safer environment for both you and your vehicle.

There is no minimum stay duration for our Short Stay car parks. However, the following car parks have the following minimum stay criteria:

Meet & Greet

From 2 days

Mid Stay

From 2 days

Long Stay

From 4 days

JetParks

From 6 days

Please note, these stay durations are subject to change due to car park availability.

ANPR technology

If your vehicle has not been recognised by our automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras, please scan the QR code on your booking confirmation (either via a mobile device or printed copy) which looks like this:

If the QR code is not recognised, or you do not have a QR code to hand, please press the intercom assistance button on the entry column, a member of staff will then assist you.

Automatic Number Plate Recognition is used for pre-book customers only.

If you have pre-booked your parking, drive up to the barrier, once the ANPR cameras have recognised your vehicle registration the barrier will raise so you may enter the car park.

If for any reason the ANPR cameras do not recognise your vehicle registration plate (if the vehicle plate is obscured by dirt/snow etc.), the barrier will not lift. In this instance, please scan the QR code on your booking confirmation (either via a mobile device or printed copy) which looks like this:

If the QR code is not recognised, or you do not have a QR code to hand, please press the intercom assistance button on the entry column, a member of staff will then assist you.

Payment

Payment must be made in advance and online. We accept all major credit cards, debit cards and PayPal for pre-booking.

We reserve the right not to fulfil your booking if your card is declined for any reason, if the payment card has been used fraudulently or without the cardholder's permission, or if you are under the age of 18.

To protect your privacy and security, our website uses SSL encryption software, which is the industry standard. It encrypts your personal information so that it cannot be read.

You will know you are in the secure area of our site when the website address is preceded by “https://” and a padlock symbol appears in the frame of your browser.

Airport parking process

All you need is your booking confirmation e-mail. Either accessible via your mobile device or as a printed hard copy.

This will help direct you to the correct car park and also states your booking reference number so you have it to hand, should you need to speak to a member of staff.

Approach the barrier, where your vehicle registration will be scanned by our ANPR cameras and verify this against your booking details and the barrier should then open automatically. Please be patient, as this process may take up to 30 seconds to happen.

If your vehicle has not been recognised by the ANPR cameras, please scan the QR code on your booking confirmation (either via a mobile device or printed copy) which looks like this:

If the QR code is not recognised, or you do not have a QR code to hand, please press the intercom assistance button on the entry column, a member of staff will then assist you.

Please do not press for a token to gain access to the car park, as this is not required and doing so will disable the ANPR system in relation to your booking, resulting in issues arising when trying to exit the car park.

If you have pre-booked long stay, mid stay or short stay car parking, approach the barrier, where your vehicle registration will be scanned by our ANPR cameras and verify this against your booking details and the barrier should then open automatically. Please be patient, as this process may take up to 30 seconds to happen.

If your vehicle has not been recognised by the ANPR cameras, please scan the QR code on your booking confirmation (either via a mobile device or printed copy) which looks like this:

If the QR code is not recognised, or you do not have a QR code to hand, please press the intercom assistance button on the entry column, a member of staff will then assist you.

If you have pre-booked Meet & Greet parking, approach the entry barrier and your car will automatically activate the intercom system.

The Meet & Greet operative will greet you over the intercom system and grant you access and provide parking instructions. Please remember to hand your keys into the office or use our self-service kiosks.

Please also have your return flight details available, as the Meet & Greet operative will make a note of these to ensure your vehicle is ready upon your return.

When you return, the Meet & Greet operatives will direct you to your car and advise of the exit procedure.

Parking availability and price

Lack of car park availability could be due to:

The car park being fully booked for all or part of your stay;

Because the booking conditions for the car parking product have not been met; or

Because you are trying to book for less than the minimum stay.

Try adjusting your selection or choose another car park. For Meet & Greet bookings, please check to ensure that you have entered the correct arrival time.

If you are still experiencing problems, please contact our Customer Contact Centre, on the following free phone numbers, who can advise on a suitable alternative car park:

Car parks are priced per calendar day or part thereof. Prices are subject to change and quotes are valid at the time of booking only. The number of days charged is calculated on the basis of the dates and times you select at time of booking.

For example if you are travelling on a Monday and returning the following Monday you will be charged for 8 days.

All prices shown are in GBP and include VAT at 20%.

Car parking charges will also vary according to:

The time of year;

Location of car park in relation to the terminal; and

How far you book in advance.

Drop off and pick up

If you’re dropping-off or picking-up at East Midlands Airport, there are a number of options available:

Short Stay car park: 30 minutes stay for £3.00

Free parking for up to 1 hour: Park free of charge in our Long Stay 1 car park, for up to 1 hour. Long Stay 1 is a 5 minute bus transfer from the terminal and parking is subject to availability.

Rapid drop-off: £2.00 for 10 minutes and £1.00 for every minute thereafter.

Although only a minority of passengers will be affected by this charge, the revenue generated will help to make sure that we are able to keep investing in the airport which will ultimately lead to more airlines flying to more destinations.

Other regional airports around the country have also introduced a range of charges for drop off/pick up.
